    About this ebook

    When Christine Blacksworth’s larger-than-life father is killed on an icy road in Magdalena, New York, a hundred miles from the “getaway” cabin he visited every month, she discovers a secret that threatens everything she’s always held to be true. Her father has another family that includes a mistress and a daughter. Determined to uncover the truth behind her father’s secret life, Christine heads to Magdalena, prepared to hate the people who have caused her to question everything she thought she knew about her father. But what she finds is a woman who understands her, a half sister who cherishes her, and a man who could love her if she’ll let him. The longer she’s around them, the more she questions which family is the real one.

    • 3/5
      Better than I was expecting. It is still very light and a quick read - nice to read between more demanding books. Better than a boring old romance but still pretty thin on the ground for depth and richness
    • 4/5
      Christine ventured to her dead father's monthly getaway only to make her life more complicated. Very likable characters and easy to identify with
    • 4/5
      A heart touching quick read about a father leading a double life and his daughter finding out about when he has a fatal accident while visiting the other family and she goes on to visit them and the story goes on from there.
    • 3/5
      What happens when your family is not what it seems? Will those secrets tear you apart or make you a stronger and better person. Ms. Campisi delves into these questions in her lovely book.
